IE7 stops responding while using Object Dock

from Stardock Forums
Whenever I load an image on WinCustomize website, IE7 stops responding. Initially I thought it was WindowBlinds causing a conflict, as Firefox also hangs, but seemed ok once I un-installed WB. Removing WB however did not stop IE7 from hanging. I un-installed Object Dock, and IE7 fuctions properly now. I thought maybe a re-install would correct the problem, it didn't, IE7 still hangs when loading images on WinCustomize site. I have updated IE7 through XP updates, and also updated OD to latest with Stardock Central.

I haven't tried installing OD without doing it throuth SDC, I'll try that, see what happens.

No issues here, I use OD+ 1.9 and IE7 and WB and load stuff to WC ALL the time. Anyone else having this kind of issue?

Someone else recently had a problem surfing after installing ObjectDock. It was his firewall. The firewall saw OD launching the browser and blocked the connection.

I installed OD free from a separate installer, but IE7 still hangs when loading images on WC. It displays the images as thumbnails ok, it's when I open the images to full screen it just locks up. I have tried loading images on different sites, but so far I haven't come across any problems, it's only on WC that this happens.

Ah yes, thanks for reminding me about that Koasati. I did read that post not so long back. I think it was Firefox or IE7 not connecting to the net when launched from OD. I'll look into that, see if disabling the firewall allows it to work. But even if I run IE7 from it's actual icon, it still locks up, and that didn't go through OD.

OK... that's just plain weird. I've no clue.

Ok, now this is interesting. IE7 opens links/pop-ups into another window, I told IE7 to open links in another tab, and stone me, it works! :LOL: No more lockups.
